SMS timestamp inconsistant (not 2016 bug)-stock rom

[Ruh]

Ziggy's cab isn't a fix it is a work around (and always has been). It originally came out as a work around until a real fix came out. This issue with timestamps is something different and could possibly relate to the "My Location" problem that was mentioned before.

I just wanted to clarify that the real fix would be that all texts coming in are marked at the time they sent to your phone, not when your phone receives them. Lets say you turn your phone off in the movie theater and when you turn it back on you have 20 texts waiting. All of those texts are going to be timestamped for the moment they get downloaded to your phone (when you turned it back on) rather than during the two or so hours that your phone was off.

Again...not trying to criticize just wanted to distinguish between "fix" and "work around". Ziggy's cab is a work around that changes the registry to mark texts with the time stamp they are DLed to the phone. So...whichever works best for you go for it.

The ziggy workaround marks the time for texts recieved according to when that text is recieved on your device rather tham the official fix actually fixes the timestamp to show when the text was actually sent like it is supposed to.
